@tsjrlover Uh, I love Queen and Freddy Mercury but how do you think Rob Grill looks like Freddie, nope. Rob had blue eyes and perfect teeth. They are complete different races - Rob - totally American white guy and Freddie - beleive or not he was orignally from India and that was his race.
Rick Coonce died of heart failure in Feb. 2011. Rob Grill died in July 2011 of complications from a head injury following a stroke and a fall. Neither were reported to have had AIDS. It seems a shame to have misinformation posted here for no reason.
R.I.P. Rob Grill.7/11/11 I learned of your passing by your good friend Cory Wells at a recent 3 Dog Night show 7/16/11 where he played your favorite 3DN song. I wish I could have seen you before you passed.
Great clip and great band. Loved "Bella Linda" especially. And I agree with those posters who never thought we'd get old. How did I become 48-years-old... and can it be possible my son will graduate with the class of '13? I still feel like the nine-year-old who spent his summers in the tire swing with a spring of rhubarb from the garden, listening to the transistor radio to the Grass Roots.
@notredamehesamighty It's nice to feel the innocence of youth. You have accomplished a wonderful thing. You lived 48 years. It's also nice to feel the wisdom of age.
i remember seeing this on tv & fell in love with dennis even though i was only 12 at the time & had no idea what boys were(unlike little girls of today)....funny, now i am 50 & he is still hot!! i wish this kind of music was still the norm!! it is fantastic.
That is Dennis Provisor on the B-3 Hammond organ. He's wearing the purple shirt and sings the bridge section of the song ("take away the rain from a flower...."
I've been a fan of The Grass Roots for 40t years & I can never get enough of them. I've been blessed to have all their albums & been able to attend quite a few concerts. I love them all but Rob really got my heart racing. He had such an amazing voice, beautiful eyes, smile & hair. I never liked moustaches til his but that changed in a hurry. My husband resembles Rob except the hair is shorter now & but he can't sing a lick but I love him anyway. Thanks for keeping them in the public eye, Rhonda
@ran6658 I too have been a huge fan of the GrassRoots for-forever it seems!! Gosh-brings back such memories!! I too also had a HUGE crush on Rob!! He was so handsome-damn-I had great taste--even when I was just a teeniebopper!!! Still think he looks awesome here--love his look!!!Still have my photo book with articles from Tiger Beat, 16, etc!! Even made a lampshade from all photo cutouts--dont know what happen to that!!LOL!!!! Good memories, GREAT music!!!
That would be Dennis Provisor. He actually has his own band now they are caled "The Hits." You can find them on Youtube. No one has a voice like Rob Grill!! He still sounds great!!
Pretty certain that Joel Larson (previously with the Merry-Go-Round of "Live" fame and later with Lee Michaels) and Virgil Weber (who also played with Climax of "Precious and Few" fame) were in the group around this time.
@captainbeyond51 he is Dennis Provisor, still performing in his own group. WHen you see these videos, they are lip sinc, the actual recordings were done with brass instruments backing them up.
"Loneliness is no one's friend, and I've been taken the same kind of ride..." I used to listen to this at night on a transitor radio back in 1971. One of my favorites from back then, but only now I understand the lyrics.
When Rob Grill smiles my heart stands still and I cant breathe anymore ... he had an unimaginably beautiful face ... I have never seen before what I see in his appearance during late 60ies ... He was so beautiful ... Even with this horrible hairstyle and the mustaches ... All the time I cant believe what I see. I am watching midnight confessions over and over again just to see his face ... wow, just wow ...
Son lo máximo, que interpretaciones, son clase A. Que tiempos, que tiempos, inigualables donde apreciamos interpretaciones de exelente calidad., conjuntos musicales que actualmente ya ni se ven, exepto aquellos que fueron de esa época y aún nos siguen deleitando con sus interpretaciones. De primera, de primera.Absolutamente buenasos.
This had to have been filmed sometime in 1971 when Rick Coonce was still in the band. Although we never get a clear shot, his afro is visible. Rob Grill on lead & bass, Warren Entner on acoustic, Dennis Provisor on Keyboards and Reggie Naughton on lead guitar. He was only in the band for a very short time in 1971, visible in the photo on the back of the 16 Greatest Hits LP.
Yes, this video is definitely dubbed. And nobody named "Wayne" was ever in the Grass Roots.
3/26---just got back from seeing Rob and the Grass Roots. Excellent show. Rob is walking a little slower, but WOW, he still rocks! His voice is still awesome......Love Ya Rob----from Wilkes-Barre,Pa
Jessesgirl, I am glad you get to see them....they have been in my area like one time when I got to see them but, haven't been back to the Cincinnati/ Indiana border. Hoping they will see this and come back to our area. WE all want to see them around here. LOVE Rob and the band. Glad you are getting to see them again!
Hi Leftlane, I got to see the Grass Roots in January! It was awesome. We had really good seats. We took our daughter with us and it was terrific!! We got to talk to Joe and Rob before and after the show! It ROCKED!!!
Jessegirl: Thanks for the info --- got curious so looked them up and they will be in my area also. I loved seeing them when I was already grown up in the 80s. Guess who else is on the road? HERMAN's HERMITS, yay!!! And Peter Noone has not aged NOT ONE single bit.
I hope you go and have a GREAT time!!! Try and video them and show us on here. I would love that !!!! Have FUN as I know you will !!!!!! I will be eating my heart out !! But, I hope to see him again myself... soon. TC
...because these back in the day these guys fell into the category of the David Cassidys, ie., top 40 bubblegum. But the difference is this group was bursting with talent which is why their music stands up today. Arguably the greatest American band of all time... that's right!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I'm curious to know what type of live venues these guys played in the 60's and 70's? I've never heard them mentioned playing venues like The Fillmore in New York etc
I just saw the Grass Roots yesterday in Rising Sun, Indiana. They were GREAT!!!! Rob still sings very well. Looks very good too!!! He signed my CD and got in some pictures with me. VERY nice person. He seems very down to earth. Love you Rob and Grass Roots
I just saw that. I will be there. I am in Versailles. Saw Temptaions at Grand Vic, already got my Little Richard tickets, for mid Sept. Can't wait for the N.B. Festival in Oct. Love the old groups.
The Grass Roots are coming here on 10/10 to Rising Sun, Indiana ....we are going to be there! Love to see you perform Rob!!! Hope everyone who lives in the area can go!!! I am sure it will be GREAT!!
What a beautiful song. I really love this video. Rob has that awesome smile and those eyes!! Whoohoo!! He still has a great voice and that awesome smile. We love you Rob!
I see why I married my husband, he use to look just like this singer, Rob Grill. I just wished he could have only sang this good. Great Group! One of the very best bands around back then.
Problem with that is every woman wanted him. I had to tell them ahead of time "keep your hands off MY man." It was so funny....we just laugh about it now. Been married for 26 years this coming Feb.
Hmm..this is from 72' & dennis is on keyboard however on temptation eyes (later) or another song, I forget..another guy with a great voice is on keyboards & I don't even see dennis in the band. However, on another video..dennis is back on keyboard & the guy mentioned above is no where to be seen...Clue me in anyone?
Wayne was on the keyboards in the early days but switched to gutair when Dennis joined the group in the early 70's. He is the one with the beard in the video between Rob and Dennis.
@leftlane57 That is Warren Entner between Rob Grill and Dennis Provisor..The Grass Roots were my fave band back then!!! Their music still holds up really well--gee-I had great tast, even back then!!!LOL!!!
They sure did lip sync this to the original, because when I sync the original recording that I have to this video the lips correspond perfectly except for the key boarder Dennis Provisor.
Temptation Eyes and this were quite a 'one-two punch' in 1971. Good group, used to be the '13th Floor' when PF Sloan and Steve Barri recruited them to perform their songs in the mid 60's.
They are going to be in Metairie , LA at the Family Gras concert with Davy Jones and Sheena Easton on FEB 15 starting at 11 00am in the morning for the first weekend of Mardi Gras.
I have been trying to find recent pics of warren entner. Dead end streeet. ANyone know where I can find them? I would like to see what he looks like today
Wow this bring back memories my neice told me the other day if you can remember this song when you poot nutin comes out but dust what did I do with that dust pan lol
Rob is suppose to be joining the group on tour again in Feb. 2009. I am really excited to finally see him in March!! My first Grass Roots concert. It will be worth the 4 hour drive to get there!!
I had word that Rob had a setback from his knee surgery last July. Hopefully, he will be able to play by Feb. Let's all hope he's recovered enough to play for his fans...who loves so dearly. Just give him a thumbs up..okee? xoxoxo
jate 2002 Rob is going to be back with the band in February! I am not sure if he has had the knew surgery yet. I have tickets to the concert in March! Rob should be with the group. I am so excited.
jessesgirl1956, Has anyone heard how Rob is doing. I know he had a really bad year. Lots of medical problems. I love The Grass Roots, hope to get to see them one day. Keep on rocking guys, your great.
Why is it that some of these guys look so different from the guys in the MIDNIGHT CONFESSIONS video? Please tell me that my eyes are playing tricks on me.

This is a video clip from Rollin' On the River (later called Rollin) TV series hosted by Kenny Rogers and The First Edition between 1971 - 1973.
The 52 episodes were filmed in Toronto, Canada. Rollin' was among the most watched syndicated shows in Canada and the USA
The First Edition became the first pop rock group to host their own prime time TV series in the USA.

Great band with clean lyrics. Not like today's (cough-cough) music.

Great tune - the dub was easy to determine, unless, of course, you can find the horn section in the video. Thanks for posting anyway.

Hmm..this is from 72' & dennis is on keyboard however on temptation eyes (later) or another song, I forget..another guy with a great voice is on keyboards & I don't even see dennis in the band. However, on another video..dennis is back on keyboard & the guy mentioned above is no where to be seen...Clue me in anyone?

Wayne was on the keyboards in the early days but switched to gutair when Dennis joined the group in the early 70's. He is the one with the beard in the video between Rob and Dennis.

They sure did lip sync this to the original, because when I sync the original recording that I have to this video the lips correspond perfectly except for the key boarder Dennis Provisor.

I just saw my first Grass Roots concert on Friday! One word, "FANTASTIC" I can't wait to see them again!

Temptation Eyes and this were quite a 'one-two punch' in 1971. Good group, used to be the '13th Floor' when PF Sloan and Steve Barri recruited them to perform their songs in the mid 60's.

Why is it that some of these guys look so different from the guys in the MIDNIGHT CONFESSIONS video? Please tell me that my eyes are playing tricks on me.

they changed members around throughout the course of the bands existence.
if you check out their wikipedia page, they've got a list of all the members and what years they played in the band and all that jazz.
